BROAD-LEAVED EVERGREEN TREES AND SHRUBS 
Of many Of the following named plants we can supply large specimens. Prices, sizes and descriptions will be given upon 
application. Our stock was never larger or better. 
Most of the plants are grown in pots, thereby increasing safety in transplanting, and with less danger of loss from re¬ 
moval. 1 hose marked O. G. are taken from open ground, but lifted with balls of earth about the roots, and same wrapped 
in moss and excelsior, or burlaps. 
In this section we are particularly fortunate in the wealth of Broad-leaved Evergreen Trees and Shrubs. We can grow 
here many very desirable varieties which arc not hardy in the far North, and we can also successfully bring to perfection a very 
!^I ge i P f°J?° rt *u n ■ . hard >’ northern varieties. A judicious selection and planting of evergreen trees and shrubs enhances 
wondertully the winter aspect of our grounds. Certain varieties must be given the proper exposure for them to attain satis¬ 
factory resu ts. It evergreens are kept mulched with well-rotted leaves, this prevents the rapid evaporation of moisture 
irom the soil, and also protects the roots from sudden changes of temperature. 
It is advisable to partially defoliate nearly all Broad-leaved Evergreens lifted from open ground. This will lessen the 
l " ss ' r( ? m transplanting, as many trees die if transplanted with all of the leaves left on. This is especially so as to Magnolias, 
Photimas, Crataigus and Ligustrums. ' 
We will supply 10 plants, our selection of varieties, standard sizes, for.
